Again?!

August 29, 2008

Well, it is the end of the month, and it is also double dip days over at Walgreen’s. I have never participated in the “double dip” (where you can use the ESQ from August in conjunction with September, because the dates overlap) because the timing for my trips has never planned out right. That, and [...]

I actually did it!

August 28, 2008

In my quest to become more frugal and get my grocery budget down, I finally decided that I could no longer buy from Schwan’s. We actually decided this about a year ago, but I’m a sucker for lunch at my door. In looking through my July and August spending, I got really frustrated with myself [...]

Frugal Idea

August 27, 2008

So, I’ve came to the realization that I have an addiction…..to foaming hand soap. Something about it that I just love! But, I hate to pay the inflated price for it, it’s just ridiculous! While I was wiping up the side of the container one day (my kids seem to get toothpaste everywhere!!!), I noticed [...]

Walgreens

August 25, 2008

There really aren’t a whole lot of deals this week that I found, but a few that are worth going for. We actually went Sunday after church, which is highly unusual considering Willie wants nothing to do with my crazy couponing skills! Our main goal was to go after Diet Pepsi, Willie goes through about [...]

MPM

August 24, 2008

Last week was an amazing week! We tried a lot of new recipes…which we loved! The chickaritos were absolutely fantastic and oh so simple!! I added black beans to ours, because we love ‘em, I had ‘em! It made enough that I froze the leftovers for a quick lunch. The Bierocks were really good also. [...]

School Time!

August 20, 2008

Well, my babies are in school! It is hard to believe that summer is done. Aren’t they just cute?! This is my 2nd grader! Where has the time gone? He was just a wee little infant yesterday it seems. He has been through so much in his small amount of time on this Earth, and [...]

All Stocked Up!

August 20, 2008

Atleast for a little bit! I went to Walgreen’s yesterday to get a few deals. I probably would not have went, but I was unable to finish my regularly scheduled grocery shopping last week, due to a friend stopping in. So, since I had to drive to the “big” town, I made it worth my [...]
